Weekly Weigh In: Week 44

I was sick this week (feeling much better now, thank you).  The general inability to taste anything might have had something to do with my weight loss this week, but that's okay.  I did NO exercise this week, since I felt   exhausted and boneless most of the week.  I did not track my foods well either.

This week, though, is a brand-spanking-new week, and I have already tracked my breakfast. ;) My plan for today is a twenty minute walk with Matthew and the doggles this evening after dinner.  I will drink water throughout the day from my straw cup. We don't know why, but anecdotal evidence seems to support that people will drink more from a cup with a straw.   I know it's true for me.  I feel like I'm getting up to refill that thing every fifteen minutes. 

Snacking on fruits and veggies is a huge score for me, since I do feel full all day long and it cuts down on the gigantic portions I used to eat at dinner and lunch. Also, when I was doing myfitnesspal, I would track those babies, and it was frustrating to see my calorie count going higher when I was eating something healthy.  Now, I understand that healthy foods also have calories and when my points for the day are gone and I eat a salad I am still adding calories to my body, but WW makes me feel so much better about it because I don't get any extra points for fruits and veggies.  It's wonderful! 

Back to the being sick this week, I felt sick for five (5) days.  Matthew, my sweetheart of a hubby, is still sick, and got sick the Thursday of week before last.  I think that taking a multi-vitamin and eating all my fruits and veggies is boosting my immune system.  I was thinking I would be sick all week this week, but I'm feeling almost entirely better today, and I was only a little bit sick! Yay! 

Now down to the nitty-gritty. 

Progress: 
Weight: 220.4 (I'd like to point out that this number has a zero for its last digit.  Next week, I hope that it will be in the teens!)
Exercise:  A big fat negatory on this one.  Sorry guys.  I'll do better this week.  
Water: I didn't track, but it still feels like not enough. 

Goals:
Weight: At least a one pound loss.  Two-teens, here I come! 
Exercise: Imma say...two high intensity (BeFitin90) and three low intensity (walks with Matthew) 
Water: 64 ounces a day, every day this week.
